Description

THE ASSASSIN: A cold and emotionless killer for whom every soul has a price, even his own, embarks on a path to find out just how high that price can be.

THE MERCENARY: A dark elf of limitless guile dares to challenge a king and carve for himself a place in the inhospitable World Above.

ILNEZHARATA and TAZMIKELLA: Ancient dragons of great power, accustomed to easily manipulating the humans around them. But not all humans are so easily led. When they pushed Entreri and Jarlaxle into the heart of the Bloodstone Lands, not even they could have imagined the strength of the human assassin's resolve, or the limitless expanse of the mercenary's ambition.

Ce que les critiques en disent

David Colacci is admirable in his narration of this epic fantasy, which is Tolkienesque in its dwarves and elves and magic and quests.... Road of the Patriarch is a bit more adult than the usual fare from this author. This is a gritty and bloody book, with a bit of sex as well." ( AudioFile)

TERRIBLE NARRATION

David, the narrator of this book, did a heavy British accent for all the characters. He obviously did not spend any time whatsoever listening to the voice performance by Victor Bevine to understand how to make some continuity between Victor's performance and his so that it would be easier for readers to make the adjustment between one narrator to the next. Unlike Victor, David does not spend any time at all understanding how to give any energy to the characters' voices based on certain situations. He doesn't give any life to the reactions, he simply reads their dialogue and the story. I don't feel like there's any heart or passion put into his performances. I will not buy another book without Victor Bevine as the narrator. End of story.

horrible narrator

the worst narration I have heard by far. i almost don't want to finish it. please return victor bevine because he at least delivered the lines like a human being and not an alien.

Great story. Bad narration.

Great story as usual for the series and after listening for awhile I've changed my initial thoughts on the narration. they're decent enough but still do not hold up to Victor's from the previous books.

Just Awful

The story (as always) is very good. But the narration is just awful, it makes listening to it a chore instead of a joy. it's not that the narrator has a bad voice it's just that it very much feels like he is just reading the words, he has zero connection to or enthusiasm for the story. and his character voices leave a lot to be desired. all his women sound like the same man and half his men sound like pirates. There is a complete lack of immersion in his story telling and just ruins the story. I truly hope they bring back Victor to record a new version of this one, even if I have to buy it again. this is the only one in the series so far that I will be skipping the next time I revisit the series.

trash, skip this one.

I can forgive mispronouncing names and places, but doing so in 3 or 4 different ways in the span of a single chapter is complete disrespect. If that was not enough then reading as if (, and .) are ! wtf is this, pretending to be Shatner adding nothing to sound like every word is epic and daunting?
Nearly every attempt at voicing is the same so you cant even tell the difference to an established male character to a new female voice. Thrilling events are done more mono tone, and monologue is read in epic flailing.
Then where is this atrocious flaunting would be 'epic' music comming from. this book is not the end of a tale or a massive epic and that takes away from it entirely.

Not buying another

I love the series and stories from Salvatore but I won't buy another audible book unless Victor Bevine is reading them. He brings the characters to life and you've made a mistake by not using him any longer. Sad and unfortunate.

No. Just no.

Listening to this man read is the audio equivalent of ripping your own teeth out with a pair of rusty pliers. I can't do it. I miss Victor. This is truly the worst timeline. What did we do to you Victor for you to forsake us so. I'm sorry, please come back to us. I will do anything, just please no more of David's awful attempts to do 'characters.' Please no more "Sharron's Claw" or Jarl Axle. Please Victor spare us this agony. You were the chosen one, without we are left floundering and sad in emotionless, off british cringe and bad delivery. Why are we here, just to suffer?

Great story, narration meh

As always R A Salvatore delivers a great story. Well written battle scenes move fluidly and gracefully. Favorite characters fleshed out more as the story and series continues. Why they changed the narrator to David Colacci after 15 books from Victor Bevine is beyond me. Audible or whomever should step up and have this book in the epic series redone for at least continuity. Colacci does not come close to Bevine in character acting nor can he pronounce key names properly. Ie “Sharron’s claw??” Many times I almost stopped listening forgoing the adventure altogether as it was a struggle to get through. Thankfully if you persevere, Bevine is back in “The Thousand Orcs” and the story can resume properly with him at the helm.

Great story, terrible narration.

I'm not sure why they chose this David guy over Victor, but he is emotionless and tonedeaf. Dwarves apparently have an Irish/English accent now, in contrast to almost every other voice acting in existence.

Amazing story, different narration

I miss Victor Bevine who narrated the previous Forgotten Realms novels - some weird accents for characters in this one
